44 Injunctions to restrain use of leased land for unauthorised purpose

(2) The Minister or anyone else whose interests are, or would be, affected by the use may apply to the Supreme Court for an injunction to restrain the use of the land for the unauthorised purpose. (3) On an application under subsection (2), the Supreme Court may grant an injunction: (a) restraining the lessee, the sublessee, the licensee or any other person from the use of the land; and (b) if satisfied that it is desirable to do so—requiring the lessee, the sublessee, the licensee or any other person to do any specified thing.
